Asian Arowamas

You could, but I wouldn't risk it. Like they all said, you'd get in a lot of trouble. Hopefully sooner or later they will become legal. Until then, stick with the ones from SA or Oz

illegal and risky.

No, but for a 100 dollars you could take some spelling lessons.

i dont understand y asia aro gotta b illegal. its not fair.

sure u can get a asian aro in da us but ur gonna hav to drop a load of $$$$ fo one. and if u find one all you prob gonna get is a low grade green. da funny sh*et is he has a chance to die and if he does...Ouch!!! dats gonna hurt. if you lik azn aro go get u a jar dey r kinda similar. after u get experience in caring fo aros in general n u still want an azn aro go ahead n get u one. ur bold enough arent ya?. jus dont cry when u found out ur 5k inventment jumped from its tank. Damn!!!....shouda use dat money as a dep on a car....hehehe....

you can get anything if you got the money. if you got a good $50,000 you could prob get an ok asain aro. if your rich then you wont have a problem . if people only knew how many asains there were in the US the would crap themselves haha.

Money can buy you ANYTHING!

"In this country, you gotta make the money first. Then when you get the money, you get the power. Then when you get the power, then you get the woman." And then maybe an asian arowana.

I've seen a few in Chinatown of downtown Seattle, WA, but for really high prices.

Where in seattle have you seen these asians??? I'll have to take a stroll out that way to see said aro.

I just wanted to repeat what has been said before. They are illegal because of the wild population is very low, and they are declining. The breeders would not release to increase the wild population because of poaching. Because of the Endangered Species Act, the US would not allow importation of the Scleropages Formosus, or any endangered species. Not even for breeding purposes. There are permits available at www.fws.gov, but not sure what criteria they would allow to get the permits approve to obtain any endangered species.

Someone returning from Thailand was caught at the airport with five asian aros (not sure what kind) in their hand carry luggage, and was fined $50,000. The fsh were also confiscated. Where the fish went, is everyones guess, I know one thing, I didn't get them
